Located on the campus of the Royal New Zealand Police College in Porirua the museum is in perfect context. Established in 1908 the collection was originally modelled on Scotland Yard’s Black Museum. Today the museum houses and exhibits a large collection of New Zealand Police cultural property and criminal cases. A modern facility, the New Zealand Police Museum provides education programmes to all ages, using examples of policing excellence and telling the stories of some of the countries more infamous crimes.

The museum is open between 10am and 5pm, seven days a week (excluding Good Friday and Christmas Day. In 2015 the museum will also be closed on Dec 29 and Dec 30). General admission is free, charges apply for guided tours and programmes, and must be booked in advance
